NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES (OCTOBER 25, 2011) (HOLLYWOODTV) - Johnny Depp revealed recently that he felt nothing but "emptiness" until the birth of his children Lily-Rose Melody, 12, and Jack, 9, with Vanessa Paradis. Depp says, "There is nothing on earth that could ever make me want to relive certain years of my life when I was young.

You grow up a bit damaged or broken then you have some success but you don't know how to feel good about the work you're doing or the life you're leading. You feel empty. I was angry and frustrated until I started my own family and my first child was born. Until then I didn't really appreciate life the way I should have, but fortunately I woke up. It was having my children that woke me up.

To fall in love, to that degree... to fall in love with... these little angels. Who didn't ask to arrive, but who arrived anyway. That was just huge for me. It was life the uplifting of a veil. There was something that it gave me, for the very first time in my life... Clarity" Depp also talks about the time he met Vanessa Paradis, the mother of his children, Depp says, "I know at that moment that I was done. It was like, OK, it's over single life." Wow, Johnny Depp is really the charmer!
